Forbidden Bond: A Velthorn Tale — Chapter 5: The Road to Rivertown

← Chapter 4: The Uncle at Arendale | 📖 Series Index | Chapter 6: Apologies →

Mikhail awoke to the early morning sounds of roosters crowing. He laid in the soft, warm bed for a time reflecting upon the events of the night before. His uncle had been questioning him about what he was going to do with Anora since it was not looked favorably upon young ones on their pilgrimage to have companions so early on. He remembered that they had settled on a man that needed the help of a goblin in the town and would see if he was willing to take Anora in and give her a place to stay. It didn;t sit very well with him for some reason but he knew that tradition dictated certain things while he was on his pilgrimage. After all he had done a good deed by rescuing her and  bringing her to Arendale. What more was expected of him. As he laid in the silence of the growing morning light, the roosters crowing the only thing breaking it, his thoughts returned to Anora.
